摘要
The forming process of self-assembly membrane (SAM) consisting of sodium 2-hydroxy-3, 5-alkyl benzene sulfonate surfactant molecules at air-water interface was studied by molecular dynamics simulation. The morphology of monolayer was analyzed through density profiles, and the configuration of head groups was investigated by analysis of radial distribution function (RDF) and H-bonding distribution. And the configuration of hydrophobic alkyl chains was also investigated preliminarily by rotational time correlation function. The results show that the hydroxyl weakens electrostatic interaction among head groups and increases the surface excess concentration. Moreover, the two alkyl chains take remarkably different configuration, and the tendency to entanglement of these chains in the SAM may enhance the hydrophobic interaction between solvent and surfactant molecules.
